Transformers Animated is widely claimed as one of the best Transformers cartoons to date and is loved by many, many fans. It was cut short in anticipation of Rise of the Fallen, with it's third season being rushed and it's fourth season shut down very early in it's development. The fanbase remains strong even with the ten year anniversary of it's last episode in May fast approaching, and fans across social media are already jumping at the idea of a continuation of their favorite series. Some fans are even encouraging others to make a ruckus on April 11th especially, lighting up social media with support for the show and sending Hasbro messages of interest in the idea.
